While frontrunner Ibiza is in Spain the next top three are all in Italy.

Second place in the league of Europe’s most exclusive marinas is the Marina Grande on Capri. The daily rate for a yacht berth here is 2,670 euros.

The Marina di Porto Cervo on Sardinia comes in third place at 2,514 euros. At the Marina di Portofino, the basic daily fee for mooring a 55-metre yacht is 2,288 euros.
